First, it should be noted that the debt ceiling has been repeatedly raised over the past four decades. Under President Reagan, for example, it was raised as much as 17 times. Under both President George H.W. Bush and President Clinton, it was raised four times. Under President George W. Bush, it was raised seven times. And so far, under President Obama, it has been raised on four occasions.
Reagan raised the dept ceiling 18 times.
The President cannot raise the debt ceiling. Only Congress can do that.
The debt ceiling has been raised 90 times since 1939 (including August 2011). Reagan holds the record - 18 times.
The debt ceiling was raised seven times under the Bush administration (from 2000-2008).From a Sept 2008 CBS story: "Buried deep in the hundred pages of bailout legislation is a provision that would raise the statutory ceiling on the national debt to $11.315 trillion. It'll be the 7th time the debt limit has been raised during this administration. In fact it was just two months ago, on July 30, that President Bush signed the Housing and Economic Recovery Act, which contained a provision raising the debt ceiling to $10.615 trillion."
Yes, several times. Most recently, President Clinton was able to balance the budget in his administration, despite having inherited a deficit from President George H.W. Bush. It was not several times and Clinton didn't do it. In fact the national debt was $5,727,776,738,304.64 when Clinton left office. Clinton left office with about a $1.5 trillion increase to the national debt. The only time the national debt has been paid off was in 1835 under President Andrew Jackson.
'Bill' Clinton has been interviewed many times by many different people as has Hilary.
For the 2008 season, Marion Barber fumbled 7 times and Clinton Portis fumbled 3 times.
